Half way through the book the wall collapses, and having no job, he shoots David Bowie in Berlin after discovering he has underage groupies. The rest of the book is him being put on trial with all the teenagers and real life musicians he beat up testifying against him.
Folks when our turn comes we have to not be dickheads about youth culture.
I'm banning Tiktok and you can't stop me
i unironically think that the 6 second video format is inimical to in depth thought or criticism. its had a toxic influence on other mediums as well, youtubers all have tiktok editing (changes every 6 seconds) now, even movies and TV shows have been SEO optimized with stupid quips and memes that are stale before the movies release.
Banning it is one thing. But you need to replace it with something good. So many nerds get mad at children for enjoying shitty content but offer nothing in return. All you accomplish is looking like a hateful boomer no one likes being around
Oh fuck no, the old people in the Soviet Union were absolutely right to hate rock and roll and blue jeans. Shit is corrosive towards the soul.
Damn when did we start siding with the Moral Majority
true. After The Revolution the only music allowed by the state will be free jazz and wall noise, and the only clothing will be latex bodysuits, bolo ties, and religious garb.
if i can't wear a baggy utility jumpsuit after the revolution whats even the point? i guess i can deal with the religious garb thing, i love robes.
Baggy utility jumpsuits are actually really cool and I want me.
We should return to tunics as the main garment. Trousers are just PPE for horseriding.
Tunics are awesome. they're like t-shirts if t-shirts weren't shit.
Can't ever trust a guy in a tunic.
let them cook
blue jeans are at least corrosive to the balls, who tf puts a huge rough thick seam right there
also corrosive to hip mobility, never try to do parkour in jeans.
Who? I do. I do it for fashion, and because because I'm used to it and honestly don't know what other pants to buy. But it does suck.
Ok could you like actually explain why then
no that's silly. Rock and roll is literally just a way of structuring the beat of a song. It makes just as much sense to say doo wop is corrosive towards the soul
Besides nobody listens to that shit anymore.
👖 🪨 🥖 =
I see your point, comrade. We must unleash the terrorsphere on the rock and roll hall of fame.
When our turn comes, we will make no excuses for the terrible music
i'm gonna be a dickhead about youth culture
it's what the youth want part of the fun of it is rebellion and defining their own thing.
it's not rebellion unless there's an old curmudgeon scolding them. It's dialectical
Unfortunately the left doesn’t have a monopoly on the concept of rebellion. Plenty of young people end up right wing with old leftists scolding them
i'm not even talking politically. I just want to complain about the new words and strange music I don't understand
